We introduce a new class of locally compact groups, namely the strongly compactly covered groups, which are the Hausdorff topological groups $G$ such that every element of $G$ is contained in a compact open normal subgroup of $G$. For…
We expand the class of polarizable Carnot groups by implementing a technique to polarize anisotropic Heisenberg groups.
We prove explicit and elementary formulas for the group homology and cohomology of a finite group with coefficients in any module. We describe in elementary terms the cohomology algebra $H^*(G,k)$ as a graded algebra for a finite group $G$…
We highlight that integer Heisenberg groups at level 2 underlie topological quantum phenomena: their group algebras coincide with the algebras of quantum observables of abelian anyons in fractional quantum Hall (FQH) systems on closed…
In this note we describe the embeddings of the Heisenberg group into the Cremona group.
This study concerns (not necessarily commutative) Hecke rings associated with certain algebras and describes a formal Dirichlet series with coefficients in the Hecke rings, which can be used to generalize Shimura's series. Considering the…
We construct a Heisenberg-like algebra for the one dimensional infinite square-well potential in quantum mechanics. The ladder operators are realized in terms of physical operators of the system as in the harmonic oscillator algebra. These…
We functorially characterize groupoids as special dagger Frobenius algebras in the category of sets and relations. This is then generalized to a non-unital setting, by establishing an adjunction between H*-algebras in the category of sets…
The geometry of the Heisenberg group acting on the plane arises naturally in geometric topology as a degeneration of the familiar spaces $\mathbb{S}^2,\mathbb{H}^2$ and $\mathbb{E}^2$ via conjugacy limit as defined by Cooper, Danciger, and…
We introduce the notion of algebraic cogroup over a subfield $k$ of the complex numbers, and use it to prove that every Nori motive over $k$ is isomorphic to a quotient of a motive of the form $H^n(X, Y)(i)$.
We study some (Hopf) algebraic properties of circulant matrices, inspired by the fact that the algebra of circulant $n\times n$ matrices is isomorphic to the group algebra of the cyclic group with $n$ elements. We introduce also a class of…
A Hom-group G is a nonassociative version of a group where associativity, invertibility, and unitality are twisted by a map \alpha: G\longrightarrow G. Introducing the Hom-group algebra KG, we observe that Hom-groups are providing examples…
We study the class of all algebras that are isotopic to a Hurwitz algebra. Isomorphism classes of such algebras are shown to correspond to orbits of a certain group action. A complete, geometrically intuitive description of the category of…
We construct an Euler system of generalized Heegner cycles to bound the Selmer group associated to a modular form and an algebraic Hecke character. The main argument is based on Kolyvagin's machinery explained by Gross while the key object…
Recently there has been a lot of research and progress in profinite groups. We survey some of the new results and discuss open problems. A central theme is decompositions of finite groups into bounded products of subsets of various kinds…
We categorify the Hecke algebra with parameters 1 and v using a variation of the category of Soergel bimodules.
In this paper, we prove that the fundamental group of a simplicial complex is isomorphic to the algebraic fundamental group of its incidence algebra, and we derive some applications.
We study a family of Riemannian problems on the Heisenberg group that tends to the sub-Riemannian problem on this group.
A new calculus of planar diagrams involving diagrammatics for biadjoint functors and degenerate affine Hecke algebras is introduced. The calculus leads to an additive monoidal category whose Grothendieck ring contains an integral form of…
A categorification of the Heisenberg algebra is constructed in by Khovanov using graphical calculus, and left with a conjecture on the isomorphism between the Heisenberg algebra and Grothendieck ring of the constructed category. We give a…
